Summary: In 1955 Mississippi, thirteen-year-old Rose Lee Carter grapples with her role in the Civil Rights movement after Emmett Till's murder. Caught between Shorty's call for violence and Hallelujah's peaceful protests, Rose feels the weight of racial tension. As she helps Aunt Ruthie start a business, Rose discovers her power to effect change. Will she find hope in her community, or is the North her only escape? This gripping tale of courage and identity unfolds in a time of turmoil, where home is both a battleground and a place worth fighting for.
